Hastening to Pentecost
Acts 20:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 20 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Paul chose to sail past Ephesus so he wouldn’t waste time in Asia, and he hurried to be in Jerusalem for Pentecost.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the realm of true being, Acts is not a travel log but a map of consciousness. Paul's decision to bypass Asia is not about geography but about a decision of the soul: he determined a faster, more focused inward tempo and moved toward his destined Pentecost. When you understand that 'Asia' represents procrastination, distraction, or the many outward appeals of the world, Paul's haste to Jerusalem becomes a declaration that the inner you will not linger in doubt or delay. The I AM within Paul acts as a conductor, aligning belief, purpose, and timing. The state he seeks is already there in the day of Pentecost—the birth of inspired action when attention is fixed on the goal. Your true travel is from doubt to certainty; your Pentecost is the moment your inner conviction becomes outer action. Practice this by assuming the end you desire and dwelling there until your sense of time and distance collapses into immediate presence.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you are already at the Jerusalem Pentecost of your choice, feeling the inner speed of your resolved purpose. Say, 'I am now where I should be, acting with unwavering urgency.'
